Love, love it, love it … and so will you. Random Odds is new, refreshing, fun and will be reputation making. This is a multi layered, multi reveal and multi climax effect, nothing like I have ever seen before. It’s all so random and yet the finale packs a phenomenal punch. It utilizes a phone, a bill, some playing cards and a great presentation to totally blow everyone away. Know here that it’s their phone, their bill and your spectators provide all the random numbers used in this minor miracle. You can even borrow the deck if someone happens to have one available.

There are no real sleighs to learn just a very basic and simple move. There is a little work to do but it is done all in front of your spectator, no big deal. There is a lot going on for the spectator but once the reveals are established, they won’t believe what they have seen. At each phase of this effect, your spectator/s (use one or more to involve in supplying you with the numbers you use) are controlling the randomness of all the numbers used and what order the cards are dealt down to accomplish the end result.

It is well worth the price for the small amount of time that you will spend learning it. Wait until you see their faces and hear their gasps. It is a miracle and you will certainly be remembers for it. Try it, you will like it.
